Hazard 3rd Best Player In The World???

It was inevitable he's going to win this award last nigh. No disrespect to Kane, Sanchez, Coutinho, De Gea and  Costa they've all had great seasons but the Belgian winger has been a player above everyone else and taken his game to the next level. With 18 goals in all competitions and 8 assists in the league Eden Hazard has been a player of quality his name should've been on the award months ago lol.

Last year with the arrival of Di Maria to man United I really though he would take Hazard's title of the best winger in the league, and give him competition. But with injuries, dip in form for the Argentinian, hes failed to live up to his form he displayed for Real Madrid last year. Hazard has kept on to the title and is probably fighting Memphis Depay, Robben and Ribery for the best winger in the world. Hazard is only going to get better and fight Messi and Ronaldo to be one of the best one day.

Messi and Ronaldo are on another level because they score triple the amount of goals Hazard does, as I was talking with a follower on Twitter yesterday. He said that's why Hazard wont get the recognition or be up there with them two. Sometimes I think Ronaldo and Messi are over hyped sometimes!!!!(Don't kill me for my unpopular opinion lol, they're still great players but...) Because they score billions of goals season after seasons in mediocre leagues. The Spanish and most European leagues, the defenders let you play, they give you too much respect on the pitch. In England its hard for most players even the strikers to score 30 plus goals a season because defenders don't let you play your game, they shut down space and are very aggressive. The Chelsea player has the potential and ability to be the 3rd best player in the planet. But Hazard needs to score more goals maybe if he was less selfish and played in the number 10 role he could do this. He's proved that he's big game player with more goals to his game and he'll be challenging the two modern days gods of football.  
  

My Champions League Predictions

So the draw was made and these two ties are looking to bring, drama, goals and thrilling entertainment. All 4 teams are no strangers to the big stage of Europe, with all of them having success in the Champions league. But come May who will be crowned the 2015 champions of Europe? I will give a preview and my predictions who will be the victors of both semi final legs.

Barcelona Vs Bayern Munich

This will be the tastier tie of the two as these two giants come head to head, with both teams that have similar playing, dominating styles with Bayern more physical than Barca. This will prove who is the better team with both teams in recent years dominating world and European football after this semi-final clash we'll see whose the bigger heavy weight, this is the final before the final, the footballs Mayweather Vs Pacquiao clash. Barca are in hot form with the best strike force in the world, with Messi, Suarez and Neymar playing out of this world. But don't doubt Bayern they climbed a mountain two days ago to thrash Porto with many key players missing, but when Robben, Lewandowski, Ribery and Thiago & co come to play. Barca will have a tough test to face with the physicality and German organisation of the Bundesliga powerhouses.

My Prediction: Bayern could be the dominate team in both ties with their muscle and organization but when you have a great front three of Messi, Neymar and Suarez it's a guarantee win, so I see Barca winning this but it won't be easy for them, Bayern thrashed them 2 years ago the tables could turn if the 3 musketeers of the Nou Camp are firing on all cylinders and pick out Bayern's shaky defence that have been falling apart in recent games.      

Juventus Vs Real Madrid

Juventus the runaway leaders of the Italian league who have taken and destroyed the dominance of both the Milan teams in recent seasons are the weakest of all four teams, Real Madrid I guess will be happy they got the Old Lady outfit as they are the easier team to play out of all 4 outfits. Pogba, Juventus's star and key midfielder may be injured and is a guarantee to miss both legs, Real Madrid could have a safe passage to the final. But the Italian giants are no push overs as Teves has revived his career, Real Madrid  old boy Morota is getting his career on track and midfield power house Vidal, one of the most hottest midfield properties in Europe Juventus can compete with the Galaticos. If this tie can be thrilling as it was 12 years ago when Pavel Nedved inspired the Juventus to the final in 2003. Real Madrid could have a problem on their hands.

My Prediction: Juventus may be coming back to the team they were in 90's and the early 00's I don't think they will be enough to beat the star studded team of Madrid that contains the like of Bale, Ronaldo, Kroos, Modric and James. I can see Madrid sailing through to the final or just beating them by the will of their hands like the Athletico legs. If they could get Pogba fit the Turin side might have a chance. But I don't seem them triumphing over Ronaldo and co.

With both ties looking tricky tests for all 4 teams I see an El Classico final with Barca having the edge over Madrid. The front three of Messi, Neymar and Suarez have been emphatic this season in combing together to score 93 goals this season they're threat to any team and can beat anyone on their day.

Sustain Or Loose Composure AS ALWAYS!!!!!!!

You guys who know me, know I'm most negative, pessimistic Arsenal fan in the world. Which I will put my hand up but I'm also a realist (Which is hard to believe but I am lol.) Arsenal are in another final, they have the chance to retain the F.A Cup, come mid may if they win the cup or end up in the top 3,(Hmmmm Instagram will go into overlaod come the end of the season *yawns*) it won't be good enough for me. I grew up watching Arsenal win the double in 2002, winning the league unbeaten in 2004 and reach the Champions League final in 2006. Now if we get 4th its an achievement with the team we have we should be pushing for the title and at least going to the quarters finals in Europe. That if Ozil and Sanchez and Co decide to be consistent. I guess you can't please everyone I'm a perfectionist if you don't like it shoot me.

What annoyed me about yesterday's game was that we're still struggling with the minnow teams, no disrespect to Reading they had a great run in the cup this season, but we should be winning comfortably against these sides, there's no excuse. With the form some of our players are in and the form the team is in we should've steam rolled the Royal Blues. Not relying on Sanchez who has gone down in form since the turn of the year, but saved us so I won't be harsh on him today loool. Aston Villa may have been out of sorts but if Benteke hits form come may with other players and we're still playing like that we'll loose. And we all know what Liverpool are capable Sterling, Sturridge and the imposing Coutinho are capable of, these guys will take you to the cleaners if your're caught napping. Wengers men need to fix up for May and learn from yesterdays performance if they are to win back to back FA Cups.    

Liverpool may have been out of sorts this season, but they're attacking talent is not to be slept on, and we all know Steven Gerrard will be fired up as it his last game for his boyhood club if the Kop make the final, so it could be a tricky test for Arsenal if they get the Merseyside Reds. Villa on the other hand will be the safer bet for us to face in the cup final but like I said with the form Benteke is in and knowing how the Arsenal defense can't hack strikers of the Belgian's ability Villa, could be as tricky as facing Brendan Rodgers men. But we all know we rather face Villa. But one thing for sure is retaining the FA Cup will be a defining time for Arsenal and raise their title credentials for next season, and if they have what it takes to be the top dogs in England they once were 10 years ago.
